JACK RIDDELL
During the expenditure
estimates of the Ministry
Of Agriculture and Food,
he Minister, William
Newman, highlighted
some programs, one of
which, the new Farm
Productivity Incentive
Program, I would like to
outline as I know from the
enquiries I .. have
received, is of interest to
the farmers.
This program replaces
the Capital Grants
program and is aimed
specifically at retaining
soil productivity and
reducing erosion.
Eligible projects under
the new program include

grassed waterways,
manure storage facilities
and alternate livestock
watering facilities. Also
included are projects to
demonstrate erosion
control.
In addition the.
Incentive Grant Program
will be available to
farmers who did not use
their full entitlement
under the Capital Grants
Program. Such farmers
may apply for grants to
assist in the building of
livestock barns, .milk
houses, poultry barns,
silos, green houses,
tobacco kilns and maple
syrup facilities.
To qualify a farm must
produce $1,000 worth of
agricultural goods an-
nually.
The maximum grants
for --erosion control, -
manure storage and
production facilities is
$3,000 with a maximum of
$1,500 for stock watering
facilities. For the first
year of the program, the
Ministry has allocated
$12.8 million. This figure
also includes same carry
over from the old Capital
Grants program.
During the estimates I
commented on four
major concerns which I
have regarding the
agricultural and food
industry. I was critical of
the investigation being
carried out by the Royal
Commission into food
discounts.
Having attended some
of the hearings and
talking to others in-
cluding the Ontario
Federation of
Agriculture, who have
participated in the
hearings, I concluded
that the investigations
, were a, built-up or a
whitewash report. I told
the Minister that it was
my opinion that the
Commission staff has
adopted the attitude right
from the beginning,• that
nothing is wrong with
discounts., The Com-
mission lawyer and staff
have not been aggressive
-in digging out the an-
swers.
I am also extremely
disappointed with the
Cotnmission's policy of
allowing company
executives to refuse Lb
answer questions which
might put them at a
competitive disad-
vantage. In my opinion
this is precisely what the
Commission was set up to
dig out.
• Another issue I dealt
with was the obvious lack
of consideration the
agricultural industry
received in the budget
speech. made by the
Treasurer. I felt that
